For your information only. A customer denoted an IBM p4 series machine to me, which is a power pc architecture. I succeeded installing Debian 64 bit and all the needed development stuff. Interestingly, there is an open-jdk 1.6 available beyond the ibm sdks.
I checked out geotools/geoserver and started some builds, looks not bad. For the future, if there are problems reported, I can turn on the machine and do active development to debug/fix issues. I will not run a hudson build server 24 hours a day because of 1) energy costs (2 power supplies) 2) the noise, after 2 hours you have to escape from your own working room 3) the dust caused by all these fans working like crazy But for problem fixing it is nice to have :-) ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Geotools-devel mailing list Geotools-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geotools-devel
